I was in a job interview and I opened a book and started reading. Then I said to the guy, "Let me ask you a question. If you are in a car that is traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, would they do anything?" He said, "I don't know." I said, "Never mind, I don't want to work for you."
It's one of my favorite "Wrightisms", geek that I am!
Wright has an interesting mind. His droll humor always hits my funny bone. I had an uncle whose humor was very similar ... his name was Francis and he was a research chemist (no, he wasn’t a mule).
